Change Context Menu
Is it possible to somehow cancel report designer's own right click context menu and instead display my own ?
I am tracing rd1_DesignerMouseDown event and set handled=true but it doesn't work.
private void rd1_DesignerMouseDown(object sender, DesignerMouseEventArgs args)
{
if (args.MouseMode == "SelectMouseMode" && args.Button == MouseButtons.Right )
{
args.Handled = true;
return;
}
}

Change Context Menu
Hello Yusuf!
There is a property MouseModeContextMenuStrip in ReportDesigner class, that represents context menu. Unfortunately it is read only.
As workaround you can use following code:
| Code: | FieldInfo fieldinfo = typeof(ReportDesigner).GetField("mouseModeContextMenuStrip", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic);
ContextMenuStrip menu = new System.Windows.Forms.ContextMenuStrip();
menu.Items.Add("1");
menu.Items.Add("2");
fieldinfo.SetValue(designer, menu); |

Change Context Menu
Hello Maxim. Unfortunately it doesn't help.
I don't want to add some items to existing popup menu. I instead want to use my own. Totally different one. We are using infragistics components for such issues. In this case there is no way me to use infragistics popup menu.
Would you please add this as a request or is there any place that we can post our requests for new version ?

Change Context Menu
FieldInfo fieldinfo = typeof(ReportDesigner).GetField("mouseModeContextMenuStrip", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic);
fieldinfo.SetValue(rd1, null);
tbmForm.SetContextMenuUltra(rd1, "popForm"); //set infragistics ultratoolbarsmanager popup menu to report designer
This might work perfectly unless if we might set context menu to null ... Then we may set our own.
But this is not working also.

Change Context Menu
Hello Yusuf,
As we can see, infragistics function SetContextMenuUltra requires direct link to the component you need to set context menu for. Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to make it public due to the purposes of encapsulation.
But you may still try reflection to get it:
FieldInfo fieldinfo = typeof(ReportDesigner).GetField("paintBox", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic);
var paintBox = fieldinfo.GetValue(designer, menu) as Control;
tbmForm.SetContextMenuUltra(paintBox, "popForm");
If it still doesn't work for you, you need to contact infragistics to ask them to tell you what exactly this function does, so we could find what do we need to do to make it work.

Change Context Menu
Hello Dmitry,
This not a big deal for me to set infragistics popup menu component onto your design component. It would be just enough if i can set null to existing popup menu. I already can set infragistics to your designer component and add my own items and run them. The problem is there are 2 popup menu on the form now. I should be able to kill the other one.

Change Context Menu
Hello Yusuf,
We plan to introduce ability to set context menu via ReportDesigner's MouseModeContextMenu. It should support setting menu to null (That should disable menu for the report designer). This feature should be available in the next version of SharpShooter Reports that is planned to go out in the second part of December.
